>Engineers, lawyers, secretaries, salespeople, plumbers don't get tenure, why should 6th grade teachers?

Compare the salaries of the above occupations to those of teachers.


Busboys, McDonalds managers, call center employees, the guys who clean your clubs at the golf course, the person who drives a minivan with ten people to the airport, loads of poorly paid people don't get tenure.

Are you saying teachers should get tenure because they make less than engineers? I don't even see what salary has to do with it. Teachers pay is low because the supply of teachers is extremely high. Its a very rewarding job, so lots of people try to do it. What does teacher pay have to do with tenure?
